Well... given the demise of Meego, more or less, and the pending demise
of Symbian and the fact that Nokia just signed a deal with the software
devil to use Windows on their handsets, I think there is a huge
opportunity for Redhat to go after the mobile device market.  Just look
at the success of Android.   A lot of players in the mobile market would
love to partner with someone other than Google.
